Outlook and IMAP is just pain, it's not intended to work, otherwise who would

1) We see this rather seldom, but sometimes mails come in after 2-10 hours,
not even a "Fetch mail" helps
2) Definitively a major problem of Outlook 2013, working with IMAP folders in
copy/rename operations is random at best
We might have had similar problems with Outlook 2013:
- Outlook would sometimes fail to create folders or recognize folders it
had created earlier
- Messages would get deleted or simply lost when they were copied between
folders
Attached is a patch that we used locally with Cyrus IMAPD 2.4.17 to
improve compatibility with Outlook 2013.

Patch to make Cyrus Imapd compatible with Outlook 2013.
This patch changes XLIST behaviour so that it works the same as in LIST
in a special case. After this patch the output should be:
. LIST "" ""
* LIST (\Noselect) "/" ""
. OK Completed (0.000 secs)
. XLIST "" ""
* XLIST (\Noselect) "/" ""
. OK Completed (0.000 secs)
